Ryan-Aussie Magic 0 Report post Posted November 20, 2008 quote: Originally posted by bringithomerashard:I hope fran vazquez never comes to the magic. He is an absolute joke. He has not succeeded over in Europe and he won't here either. We should send Otis over to Europe to live with Fran since he thought so highly of him. Great pick Otis. Can I remind you all Marc Gasol had similar #'s as Fran and now you're all creaming dacks over him saying why didn't we draft him Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Marc Gasol was the MVP of the league last year, something that Fran had never accomplished and never will. The first stat in this link is something similar to Hollinger PER http://www.acb.com/stsindiv.php?cod_competicion=LACB&co...icion=52&cod_fase=LR If you look at all the stats, there's absolutely no way to compare Fran with Marc (the only one in which Fran win is actually dunks) And Marc is two years younger, BTW.

Berto 338 Report post Posted November 21, 2008 People hate Fran around here, and for good reason, but I wouldn't mind giving him a run in Orlando if he wanted to come. I mean, could he be any worse than Battie or Cook? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NotByChoice 2 Report post Posted November 21, 2008 Does anyone else think that this guy is destined to fail now? I mean even if he ever does come over I feel like he'll be under a microscope and the pressure will get to him. Or I guess on the other hand he will be a little older maybe more confidant in his game, relatively forgotten about and able to make an impression. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And Fran is a waste of a (high) pick until now... at least Brian is showing up everyday in Orlando!!! But anyway, they're different players, and Cook would not be so bad if only he would have a little passion for the game and the will of put his body into defense and rebounding. I would love to make an experiment mixing the hustle and the character of Bo Outlaw with the skills of Cook. We would eventually create the perfect PF for our team.

EnFuego 1 Report post Posted November 21, 2008 12 Yaroslav Korolev Los Angeles Clippers 13 Sean May Charlotte Bobcats 14 Rashad McCants Minnesota Timberwolves 15 Antoine Wright New Jersey Nets 16 Joey Graham Toronto Raptors 17 Danny Granger Indiana Pacers 18 Gerald Green Boston Celtics 19 Hakim Warrick Memphis Grizzlies 20 Julius Hodge Denver Nuggets 21 Nate Robinson Phoenix Suns 22 Jarrett Jack Denver Nuggets 23 Francisco Garcia Sacramento Kings 25 Luther Head Houston Rockets 26 Johan Petro Seattle SuperSonics Players picked after Fran in 2005. Granger stands out as a steal. There are some there with some promise and all have contributed at least something to their team by just showing up. But if Fran picks up the pace in Spain, he may have more trade value than many of the people in that list by theend of this year. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LOL, If I have the ability to combine talents to create super players I'm not going to waste my time with Cook and Outlaw! I need JJ and Pietrus to step into my office please....this will only take a second. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
